It's somebody's birthday

[scary_music]

Mun-chan! Mun-chan! You remembered Ibuki's birthday! But isn't it a little late for you? Such a night owl!

Ooh, though, isn't it too bad Ibuki can't celebrate her birthday at the Bastion? That's so sad! Where can Ibuki celebrate it? Oh, I know! She can celebrate it here, right? Right! YAHOO~!

Oooh, you have Thanksgiving on Ibuki's birthday? What's that? Ibuki has no clue! Oh, Ibuki knows!

THANKS for GIVING Ibuki a birthday party! No? No, that's not it? Ooh, turkey! So much turkey! We have a holiday like that! On the 25th of December, we have Kentucky Fried Chicken! ... It's not the same? But turkey tastes like chicken, doesn't it? No?

Ibuki hopes she gets lots of her friends at the Bastion for her birthday! That would make Ibuki so happy! Uwah... but they don't do applications today, do they? Oh well! It can be a delayed birthday present then!

[... for general birthday shenanigans assume party hats, balloons, games, cake, whatevers... and especially a karaoke machine.]

Ahhh...

[Sorry still holding on]

... Then, what about a game instead, Gundam-chan? That should be fine, right? Right?

[sthampede]

[H-how is he supposed to get a girl to stop touching him and why does he have this problem in the first place? Is this normal!?]

That... would depend on the game.

[scary_music]

Let's see, let's see...

What about twister?

[sthampede]

[did she just]

No.

[scary_music]

No? No? What about truth or dare? How about that?

[sthampede]

[He hesitates, then—]

No.

[scary_music]

Uwah... why don't you pick something, then, Gundam-chan? Are any games okay?

[sthampede]

[Would now be a good time to mention that he really doesn't have much experience with birthday parties and/or games played at them? He returns his attention to his hamsters instead, idly scratching one behind its ears.]

Twenty questions, perhaps?

[If only because then he can pick animals and it's always easier when he can talk about animals.]

[scary_music]

Okay!

Then go ahead! Ask Ibuki twenty questions! Ibuki's ready!

also i swear i haven't forgotten other thread i just lack brain power

[sthampede]

[At her acceptance, he gradually begins to relax, making only one last token effort to dislodge her before speaking.]

Very well. Is it a living organism?

[He doubts that she will have chosen something he might easily guess, so the answer is likely no, but that's all the more reason to eliminate the option as soon as possible.]

it's fine it's fine

[scary_music]

It's living, yes! It is!

It could be anybody here at the party, so many people to choose from!

BUT IS IT

[sthampede]

Then is it a human?

YOU'RE RIGHT IT ISN'T UWAAAAAAAAAAA

[scary_music]

It is, it is! The most human of all!

[... that doesn't make sense, Ibuki]

D: I'M SORRY

[sthampede]

[That eliminates both him and the Four Dark Devas of Destruction, then.]

A male?

NOW WHO'S BEING MIKAN?!

[scary_music]

Yes, very male!

don't tempt me

[sthampede]

[A male human at this party (unless she had been intentionally misleading him with the party remark). He glances around at the other guests, then—]

A high school student?

Don't tempt me to tempt you

[scary_music]

Yes, that's right! Hope's Peak Academy!

[Ibuki that was a little more information than you should have thrown out...]

FORGIVE ME FORGIVE ME FORGIVE ME

[sthampede]

A student in our class?

Mikan-chaaaaaaaaaaaan

[scary_music]

Nope, nope! A different class!

i feel unclean. also still need more icons, goddammit

[sthampede]

[A different class?

Gundam blinks and takes another look around at the other partygoers. Who—]

That one?

[Pointing at Makoto.]

*throws icons at*

[scary_music]

Nope, nope! Gundam-chan is wrong! Completely wrong!

[sthampede]

[Wrong? But... who else at the party is male and high-school-aged? Unless—]

This fiend of whom you speak— he is present at this party, correct?

[Had that been wrong?]

[scary_music]

Yes, yes, he's definitely at the party! He's here, he's very present!

[sthampede]

[Definitely present at this party. Perhaps in hiding? He would enlist the aid of his Four Dark Devas of Destruction to unearth the brigand, but he refuses to resort to underhanded methods. Had his opponent been someone other than Ibuki, he may have reconsidered the stance, but...

He gives the others another piercing stare. Why will they not reveal to him their secrets? Or...]

A Super High School Level Ninja?

[scary_music]

Nope, nope! That's wrong!

Definitely not a ninja! Very un-ninja like!
